O love that will not let me go
D Asus G
I rest my weary soul in thee
D A Bm Bm/A G
I give thee back the life I owe
G D/F# Asus A
That in thine ocean depths its flow
G A D D/F# G A D
May richer fuller be, may richer fuller be
O light that follows all my way
I yield my flick'ring torch to thee
My heart restores its borrowed ray
That in thy sunshine's blaze its day
May brighter fairer be, may brighter fairer be
O joy that seekest me through pain
I cannot close my heart to thee
I trace the rainbow through the rain
And feel the promise is not vain
That morn shall tearless be, that morn shall tearless be
O cross that liftest up my head
I dare not ask to fly from thee
I lay in dust life's glory dead
And from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be, life that shall endless be
